Where is the oil drain plug? I saw the hose from oil tank I drain it but where on engine do drain the oil ? Can't find oil plug..

Which oil drain plug, your bike has three oil reservoirs? If you are servicing your bike I recommend you get yourself a factory service manual, which will show you what you want and a whole lot more that you need to know. Your local dealer can supply - don't buy a cheap aftermarket one, get the real deal.

The only way to drain engine oil is to drain the oil tank, there is no oil drain plug on the engine.
